What is flyboarding and how does it work?

You strap into a board connected by a hose to a jetski, which pushes water through the board and lifts you above the surface. Our instructor controls the power from the jetski and stays with you the whole time.

Do I need experience to try flyboarding?

No experience needed — most first-timers are up and hovering within their session with guidance from our instructor. If you've never tried it before, book the 30-minute option to get a feel for it first.

Yes. You wear a life jacket, get a safety briefing before starting, and your instructor controls the water pressure from the jetski throughout your session rather than leaving you to manage it alone.

Wear swimwear or clothes you don't mind getting wet, and bring a towel, sunscreen, and a change of clothes for after. We provide the flyboard, life jacket, and fuel.

Do you offer hotel pickup for flyboarding?

Yes, private pickup and drop-off is available for AED 450 per car, which comfortably covers a family or group of 4–5 people. We confirm your exact pickup time by WhatsApp or email the day before your booking.

What's your cancellation policy?

A 10% cancellation fee applies to every booking. For 1–3 guests, cancelling 96 hours or more before your booking means you only pay that 10% fee, 24 to 96 hours before is a 50% fee, and inside 24 hours is charged in full. Group bookings of 4 or more follow a 7-day (50% fee) and 5-day (100% fee) cutoff instead, and refunds go back to your original payment method within 30 days.

About This Experience

Flyboarding straps you to a board connected to a jetski by a hose, using the water pressure to lift you above the surface. It looks tricky from the beach, but most first-timers are hovering within their session.

Our instructor controls the power from the jetski and stays with you throughout, so you're never really on your own out there. We've run water sports from Dubai Marina since 2008, and every session includes the equipment, fuel, a life jacket, and a safety briefing.

Book 30 minutes if you just want to try it, or 60 minutes to get past the learning curve and start moving around more freely.
